“We highly recommend Allison Bliss and her consulting firm for not only putting out a tremendous product, but for her professionalism, attention to detail, ability to present only relevant data and quick turnaround. We have over the course of this project worked with many professionals on all levels, but by far Allisons group was one of the most instrumental. ” – Donna Layburn, Developer/CEO, Alameda Marketplace
“Knowledge is Bliss”, is truly the agency’s motto, not just a tagline. Curious how this agency’s marketing is different or unique?
INNOVATIONS
Nominated as an “Initiator” by Seth Godin’s Domino project, the agency was cited for their innovative “Walks With Bliss: Idea Lab Walks”.
To move clients further towards success faster, Bliss created the “Walks with Bliss” Idea Lab walks as an experiential form of business strategy meetings for individual business owners and for leadership groups.
Using neuroscience and physiology (and Mother Nature) to induce visionary ideas, Bliss directs a discovery process to gain breakthrough epiphanies to pressing marketing, management or general business issues in these 1 hour walks. In anecdotal reviews, Bliss noticed that participants literally began to “embody” the suggested solutions that “move them forward” to enable speedier resolutions.
Bliss is also the innovator of an online wizard tool that writes a company profile for you. It has been used by businesses all over the world to generate profiles across a variety of industries – from snowplow companies to office management firms, tech and public institutions.
BACKGROUND & HISTORY
In her early career, Bliss managed productions for 10,000+ major Hollywood films, television shows, music concerts, commercials, and live events. She worked with lots of divas and even some great talents including Robin Williams, Sean Connery, Frances Ford Coppola and the Grateful Dead before injuries from an auto accident prevented her on-location work. Unbelievably, she says that she doesn’t miss the 22 hour workdays or diva tantrums.
She now brings those same creative and productivity-enhancing ideas to businesses who need equal innovation and business savvy. Starting as a Marketing Consultancy, the agency grew to include teams of experts to create strategic plans or materials that clients needed. Founded in San Francisco, California, the agency has relocated to the sunnier side of the bay – now an Oakland Marketing Agency in the Jack London Waterfront District.

On media projects, Bliss contributed to Emmy, Iris, and Peabody award-winning shows. Bliss established the Commercials Committee for the Directors Guild of America, and through her positions in television (for ABC-TV, HBO, MTV), feature films (Paramount Pictures, Universal, etc.) and various media, developed connections with politicians, business, entertainment, and community leaders.
Allison Bliss is a contributing reporter to the Oakland Business Review and Alameda Business newspapers, the East Bay Business Times, Directors Guild of America Magazine, and has been interviewed by Investors Business Daily, San Francisco Chronicle, Film Clips and more.
Bliss has been a guest lecturer for the International Association of Business Communicators, the Career Action Center, San Francisco State University, Golden Gate University, Organization of Women Architects, and the Association of Personal Historians.

“As my business partner and I launched our new business, we needed help in bringing our services to market. We thought we would be getting a marketing plan, but we got so much more!
Not only is Allison an outstanding marketing mind who created amazing collateral, a website and a brand for us, but she is an astute business person overall. [She had] so many creative ideas to help us establish ourselves as a market leader for our service. She helped us design different packages to provide our services – ways that we would have never thought of on our own.
When the dotcom crash happened, and our business was severely affected, she helped us quickly re-brand ourselves to serve a different market and survive the downturn. . . ” - Sandy Minella, CEO, Start Up Right
